1/3 c. pecan halves

3 Tbsp. icing sugar

1/4 tsp. cinnamon

1/8 tsp. allspice

1/8 tsp. nutmeg

2 Tbsp. orange juice concentrate, thawed

2 Tbsp. olive oil

1 Tbsp. Balsamic vinegar

1/2 tsp. honey

1/2 tsp. Dijon mustard

8 c. baby spinach leaves

1 c. radicchio

1 large ripe pear, peeled, cored and diced

Directions

Preheat oven to 350*. Spray baking sheet with cooking oil.

Bake for 15 minutes in the center of oven. Remove and cool. When cool enough to handle, coarsely chop them.

Whisk together the orange juice concentrate, oil, vinegar, garlic, honey and mustard in small bowl. Pour over salad and toss to coat. Garnish with candied pecans.
